CNL 509 Grand Canyon University Arab and Muslim Americans Discussion

I’m studying for my Psychology class and need an explanation.

What skills or universal human capacities can be used by the clinical mental health counselor to make a connection with an Arab American or Muslim American client? Identify an assessment tool that may be used to assist in gathering data about the cultural background of the client?

This discussion question is informed by the following CACREP Standard(s):

2.F.2.b. Theories and models of multicultural counseling, cultural identity development, and social justice and advocacy.

2.F.7.b. Methods of effectively preparing for and conducting initial assessment meetings.
